Error when updating PO and Inbound Delivery

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am facing an error in one of my programs where I am making updates to a PO and its Inbound Delivery.

I am processing multiple POs, the details of which are read from a text file.

These PO's are processed in a loop, and for each PO, the 'BAPI_PO_CHANGE' is first called and then

I am using BDC over transaction 'VL32' to update the Inbound Delivery.

However, when I try to process multiple PO's, it gets stuck when updating the Inbound Delivery of the second PO

itself. When the BDC for updating the inbound delivery is called, I get an error message informing that the 'PO' is

still being processed.

I am not sure why this error is occurring because I am calling the 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' after updating the PO.

Any suggestions for solving this would be a great help.

Hi,

I think, this is due to locking of Purchase order while you process the inbound delivery of the same PO. I suggest you update all the Purcahse orders in one go and then proceed for updation of Inbound deliveries.

This because the locks aren't already deleted.

After the "BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT", try this code

do.
 CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_READ'
   EXPORTING
     gclient = sy-mandt
     guname  = '*'
     gname   = 'EKKO'
     garg    = garg                     "YOUR PURCHASE ORDER
   IMPORTING
     subrc   = vn_subrc
   TABLES
     enq     = tb_enq
   EXCEPTIONS
     OTHERS  = 1.
if tb_enq[] is initial.
    exit.
endif.
enddo.

In this way, you avoid locks and you can process the Inbound delivery

Hi,

I tried the Enque method suggest above to check for the locks. But that too is not working.

I still get the same error. I was making this check after calling the 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'

The problem is that I need to update each PO only if the Inbound Delivery is updated successfully.

Hence, I need to update the PO's one by one.

Hi,

Try this piece of code. After calling Purchase order change BAPI

call function 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
        exporting
          wait   = 'X'
        importing
          return = lt_return.

if lt_return is not initial.
  error in Calling PO Bapi.
else.
 Proceed with Inbound delivery BAPI.
endif.
